About this ebook

The story is Philosophical and Psychological in nature.Well, we are

proving to forget our own youth, in the first encounter of our life at

large, we do not have the treasury and wisdom. We are also confused and

tired to understand the complexities of life in a simple way. In this book

we will relive those days of earlier life. It is always useful to look through

younger eyes, that prevent generation – gap. In this work characters may

not appear very well worked out, all men do not appear the same to all.

As George Santayana, commented on Dickens characterization and said,”

his characters do not confirm to everyday experience of life and men.

They are like men seen and described by a child.” A child view is different

from an adults he emphasizes the Wrong things, but his view is no less

true than that of an adult. Marshall’s attitude toward the surroundings

is general and towards love in particular has not been worked out with a

mature skill of Psycho social analysis, but what comes to him is the basic

truth of life, stated in an unadorned way. It is a tragic romantic fiction.

Marshall the protagonist lives in Tripura and went to Calcutta University

to complete his Master degree, where he meets Adriana. It is surrounded

by the lives of other individuals who are attached with Marshall.

'The Rain In Winter' by Debajyoti Gupta is a captivating tragic romance set up in resplendent backdrop of North-east India. It revolves around Marshall Roy, a boy from a small town of Tripura, who doesn't believe in love. Because, he feels love always bring sadness and sorrow in one's life. The story moves ahead with fast-paced narration focusing on Marshall's struggle in Calcutta University. Apart from his day to day struggle and his vision on love the story takes U turn which I am not going to mention here. I like the plot-setting and entire theme of penning down a tragic romance with philosophical plotline at the same time with relatable characters and storyline. Although, I feel author could have given more emphasis on description of scenerios and justified the backdrop bit more. Overall "The Rain In Winter" is a marvellous tragic romance depicting the complexities of life and love. Must read❤❤

"The Rain in Winter" penned by Debajyoti Gupta delves deep into life's complexities, adopting a philosophical and psychological narrative that invites readers to re-explore the early stages of existence. Gupta bridges generational gaps, encouraging readers to see life through youthful eyes. While character nuances may be limited, the author, reminiscent of George Santayana's critique of Dickens, captures the essence of human experience. The protagonist, Marshall, embarks on a journey from Tripura to Calcutta University, encountering Adriana and becoming entangled in the lives around him. Gupta's narrative mirrors a child's perspective, presenting life's fundamental truths in a straightforward manner. Despite lacking intricate psycho-social analysis, the book effectively communicates essential realities. Marshall's outlook on his surroundings and love, though lacking mature scrutiny, compensates with an authentic portrayal.
